Please note that Year 5 will be doing their PE lessons split across two days going forward on BOTH Mondays and Fridays (for an hour of each afternoon). The children in both classes need their PE kits in school on both of these days. This is so that the children are able to do both gymnastics and tag rugby.
Thanks!

Hello Sparrow parents!
We have had a lovely first day in Year 5. 
PE will be on Fridays so please make sure your PE kit is in everyday but especially on Fridays. Every item should have the child's name in. Please also bring a water bottle in everyday as these are being used at lunchtimes in the hall.
See you all tomorrow!
